This cache has been archived.

Pine and Poplar: Sadly I am going to have to archive this geocache. I had hoped to get everything back in place and fixed at the beginning of the summer, but due to the river levels it kept getting postponed. I don't have as much time in Fargo as I did when this was first hidden and with my current schedule, I don't really know when I would be able to finish fixing everything that is required for this cache.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to look for the series and find this cache. It was a good three year run.

Geocache Description:

Not at Posted Coordinates

In order to determine the location of Clue: The Finale, you must locate the other nine clue caches and determine who did it, where, and what they used. Once these have been determined, the offsets listed in the following table should be applied to the posted coordinates.

For example, if you believe it was Mr. Green, in the ballroom, with the candle stick, the offset for the north coordinates will be:
+1.000-0.789-0.189 = +0.022
This gives the north coordinate as N 46° 52.054

About this Cache:
This cache has been placed in the city of Moorhead with permission. The clue cards inside the cache are not trade items and are marked as such. Please do not remove the cards from the cache.

When seeking this cache, please keep in mind the difficulty and terrain as well as the attributes. This is the most difficulty cache in the series (and not just because of the work required to get the coordiates). The cache container could be considered a large small or a small regular. It is the largest cache in the series.

There is an unactivated geocoin for the FTF.

About the Series:
This series contains 10 different caches, one cache for each room on the classic Clue board and then a bonus final cache. Inside each of the room caches are two clue cards, either a person, a room, or a weapon. Make sure you write down or record the cards from each geocache that you find. Find all of the room caches and determine who did it, what they used, and where they did it.
